Brady thinks outside the box and works calmly, even when under pressure. Recently, when responding to a small aircraft crash alongside multiple departments, Brady showcased his innovative problem-solving skills to locate the crash site. Despite the use of helicopters, the crash site remained undiscovered until Brady suggested using the pilot’s “find my phone” function to locate it. Although the outcome was not as hoped, this incident highlights Brady’s ability to find creative solutions in difficult situations.

Brady brings a strong educational foundation to his role, having received high honors from Columbia Central High School and his firefighter training, twice earning the Columbia Fire Cadet of the Year award.
